Just came in! Any advice will be appreciated. Looks like it comes with the 13x16 shims

That is on my to-do list, will report what I find haha ??I would open the rear diff to see what comes inside.
Gonna go with the Hobbywing Max8 combo with the 2200kv motor, Power HD R30 servo, and a Flysky GT5 transmitter with the BS6 receiver. Not looking for crazy speed and doubt I'll be sending it over 10+ feet, but you never know ?Nice. What are you thinking on putting in it? Mine just shipped today.
With that combo I would get a motor fan right away and keep the pinion size down as this combo likes to get hot in the heavier kraton body. Just my experience... I have this same combo in my typhon all decked out and “heavier than stock” has just bash it chassis and other goodies and it still gets warm even in this smaller 1/8.. it’ll scoot though even with a smaller pinion Seeing as it’s the higher 2200 kv..Gonna go with the Hobbywing Max8 combo with the 2200kv motor, Power HD R30 servo, and a Flysky GT5 transmitter with the BS6 receiver.

Yeah I got the Hobbywing C4 heatsink/fan for it, see how that works. Box only came with a 12T pinion but read 14T or 15T should be ok. I'll start with the 12T and check how my temps are on the ESC and motor.With that combo I would get a motor fan right away and keep the pinion size down as this combo likes to get hot in the heavier kraton body.

2200kv , a tad too high IMHO. Highest I would go is HW 1950kv combo. Running 6S. But many even go lower KV than that for more torque and less heat if you state speed is not your goal. 12T pinion/6s is really going to spool that 2200kv up fast.

That’s what I’ll be running it with, yea..
Nice! I'll work with what I have and go from there. Was looking at this Motor if the 2200kv wasn't to my liking:That’s what I’ll be running it with, yea..
I also have a 4082 in the 1600kv that I had on a kraton and it was a torque monster. That was also paired with a max 8.. that setup is now on my outcast exb and runs great ??
links to a couple videos of the 4082 1600kv...
You have a link to the screws you use?Check the diffs to make sure they are filled - or change out the fluids to your choice.
I replace the crappy sliding motor mount screws with flanged SHCS on all my 6S vehicles.
Might as well start doing whatever body reinforcing method you plan on using.
Thanks ??@Jamart85 - here you go: https://www.mcmaster.com/92235A114/
Some small progress. Installed the servo, took it off and on a handful of times to get a gap underneath ?. Added the Outcast side guards too.
Followed the booklet and ran the servo wire under the front dogbone. Makes me think the wire could start to rub on the dogbone, has anyone had an issue with that?
Thinking of adding these wire tabs I have on hand, see pic
